Hi gurus!The easiest way (if you have root access) is to use the CVSUP system. It is well described in the handbook, and the handbook is available online on www.freebsd.org . If you do not have the cvsup util already installed, you need to find it and compile it yourself, after you fetch it from the web. Or better, get a .tgz version which is a precompiled package. Search for the source of it on www.freebsd.org/ports/
I have a remote FreeBSD computer (RELEASE 4.7 stable). It is on the other side of Earth. I can access it only with ssh.
It is really a base system. The ports collection (/usr/ports) is entirely missing. I'm familiar with installing ports. But I have
no idea how to install the ports collection using only an ssh shell. Please give me a direction.
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for all your help. I'm currently installing apache2. :-)
